Have you heard of ghosting before? Urban dictionary defines it as When a person cuts off all communication with their friends or the person, with zero warning or notice beforehand. You'll mostly see them avoiding friend's phone calls, social media, and avoiding them in public. This could be for a meet-up, interview, or even a date.
I have been ghosted, for all three examples and it really sucks! Ghosting is happening more and more these days and I’m here to help you avoid ghosting someone for an interview. I’m here today to help you not create a super awkward position for you or the other party involved when you’re not interested in an interview.
Imagine if you have a scheduled interview with who you think is the hiring manager of a business, you look into the business more after your phone interview and you find out that you’re not interested in an interview, so you ghost them. Well, now imagine if you do this, but it wasn’t just the hiring manager that you were speaking with, it was an employment agency. This agency could work with hundreds of companies and now, you’re out of the running for every. Single. One of them! That’s a heavy price to pay for not wanting to work with one company isn’t it?! You’ve just burnt that bridge and you won’t be able to get another interview with those hundreds of local jobs in the community.
If you’re not interested in working with this company. You want to make sure to let them know that you are declining the offer. Otherwise, they may think that you’ll be interested in the future, or that you need some more time. By actually stating that you’re declining the offer and choosing to go with another company will give them the information that they’ll need and they will probably thank you for the email.
